                         AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO SCHEDULE 13D
                     RELATING TO THE CLASS A COMMON STOCK OF
                         POLO RALPH LAUREN CORPORATION

     GS  Capital  Partners,   L.P.  ("GS  Capital"),   GS  Advisors,  L.P.  ("GS
Advisors"),  Stone Street Fund 1994, L.P. ("Stone  Street"),  Bridge Street Fund
1994, L.P.  ("Bridge Street" and together with GS Capital and Stone Street,  the
"Limited Partnerships"),  Stone Street Funding Corp. ("Funding Corp."), Goldman,
Sachs & Co. ("Goldman Sachs") and The Goldman Sachs Group, L.P. ("GS Group" and,
together  with  Goldman  Sachs,  GS  Advisors,  Funding  Corp.  and the  Limited
Partnerships,  the "Filing Persons")./1/ hereby amend this statement on Schedule
13D filed with  respect to the Class A Common  Stock,  $0.01 par value per share
(the  "Class A Common  Stock"),  of Polo Ralph  Lauren  Corporation,  a Delaware
corporation  (the  "Company").  Goldman  Sachs and GS Group may be  deemed,  for
purposes of this Statement,  to beneficially  own shares of Class A Common Stock
through the Limited Partnerships. The Limited Partnerships own shares of Class C
Common Stock, which is convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock.  Goldman
Sachs and GS Group  each  disclaims  beneficial  ownership  of shares of Class A
Common Stock  beneficially  owned by the Limited  Partnerships  to the extent of
partnership  interests in the Limited  Partnerships  held by persons  other than
Goldman Sachs, GS Group or their affiliates.  In addition,  Goldman Sachs and GS
Group may be deemed to  beneficially  own shares of Class A Common Stock held in
client  accounts  with  respect to which  Goldman  Sachs or employees of Goldman
Sachs  have  voting or  investment  discretion,  or both  ("Managed  Accounts").
Goldman Sachs and GS Group disclaim beneficial  ownership of the shares of Class
A Common Stock held in Managed Accounts.  Goldman Sachs and GS Group may also be
deemed to beneficially  own from time to time shares acquired in ordinary course
trading activities by Goldman Sachs. Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized
terms used but not defined  herein shall have the same meaning  ascribed to them
in the Schedule 13D.

     This amendment is being filed to report a decrease in the percentage of the
outstanding  shares of Common Stock which may be deemed to be beneficially owned
by certain  of the Filing  Persons  resulting  from a decrease  in the number of
shares held in Managed Accounts.

     /1/ Neither the  present  filing nor  anything  contained  herein  shall be
construed as an admission that any Filing Person  constitutes a "person" for any
purposes other than Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.


          ITEM 2 is hereby amended as follows:

ITEM 2.   Identity and Background.
          -----------------------

     ITEM 2 is hereby  amended by amending  Schedules  II-A and II-B hereto,  to
read in their entirety as attached hereto.


          ITEM 5 is hereby amended as follows:

ITEM 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
          ------------------------------------

     (a) As of April 17, 1998, GS Capital  beneficially  owned, and GS Advisors,
L.P.  may be deemed to have  beneficially  owned,  21,458,715  shares of Class A
Common Stock,  representing  approximately  38.5% of the  outstanding  shares of
Class A Common  Stock  reported to be  outstanding  as of February  10, 1998 (as
reported in the  Company's  Quarterly  Report on Form 10-Q for the period  ended
December 27, 1997),  assuming that all of GS Capital's  shares of Class C Common
Stock but no other shares of Class C Common Stock were  converted into shares of
Class A Common.  Assuming  all  outstanding  shares of Class B Common  Stock and
Class C Common  Stock were  converted  into shares of Class A Common  Stock,  GS
Capital would have beneficially owned, as of April 17, 1998, approximately 21.4%
of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock.

         As of April 17, 1998, Stone Street beneficially owned 616,607 shares of
Class A Common Stock, representing  approximately 1.8% of the outstanding shares
of Class A Common Stock  reported to be  outstanding as of February 10, 1998 (as
reported in the  Company's  Quarterly  Report on Form 10-Q for the period  ended
December 27, 1997), assuming that all of Stone Street's shares of Class C Common
Stock but no other shares of Class C Common Stock were  converted into shares of
Class A Common.  Assuming  all  outstanding  shares of Class B Common  Stock and
Class C Common Stock were converted  into shares of Class A Common Stock,  Stone
Street would have beneficially  owned, as of April 17, 1998,  approximately .62%
of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock.

     As of April 17, 1998,  Bridge Street  beneficially  owned 645,657 shares of
Class A Common Stock, reperesenting approximately 1.9% of the outstanding shares
of Class A Common Stock  reported to be  outstanding as of February 10, 1998 (as
reported in the  Company's  Quarterly  Report on Form 10-Q for the period  ended
December  27,  1997),  assuming  that all of Bridge  Street's  shares of Class C
Common  Stock but no other shares of Class C Common  Stock were  converted  into
shares  of Class A Common.  Assuming  all  outstanding  shares of Class B Common
Stock and Class C Common  Stock  were  converted  into  shares of Class A Common
Stock,  Bridge  Street  would have  beneficially  owned,  as of April 17,  1998,
approximately .64% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock.
